Honestly, I have always found teachers so willing to do that extra training, even outside their hours. They are so willing to learn.
I wish to touch back on the issue of gender, in particular for this service. What is the gender breakdown? Is there a corollary for that younger cohort, that it is more boys than girls coming for services? Are there strategies to combat that and deal with the masking effect that girls might be doing? What is the gender breakdown of parents who engage with the service? Is it mostly mammies who do it? I kind of know the answer to that.
